A while ago I tried to PAY $6/HR to do it, but I could not get to the
game.  They kept telling me to go to page 1135, but the machine would
not let me go to page 1135.  I asked (almost everyone on Genie I can write to)
if there was any qualifications that I need (like paying more) but there 
was none.  After 3 or 4 letters, Genie would not even allow me to type 
the word "1135" during Genie mail editing session!

If you guys want us to join Genie and pay $6 to play Battletech, I would
gladly pay the money.  But if you are just trying to get us to join to pay
$6 to play other games, forget it!  Does the management at Genie know
what you guys are doing???
